This gorgeous-looking left-hand drive MKIV 3.5 Litre Drophead Coupe - chassis number 637144 - is equipped with four-speed manual transmission. It sports Black Cherry bodywork teamed with Tan leather upholstery and a Dark Sand mohair-lined hood. The Jaguar was manufactured in April 1948 and delivered to Hoffman, the company's New York outlet. It was apparently treated to a body-off restoration in Arizona between 1986 and 1991, during which some $160,000 is said to have been invested with Terry Larson Workshops and Olde Car Workshops Phoenix. The engine was overhauled by Classic Restorations (Scotland) Ltd in 2007/2008 at a cost of £7,666 and the interior completely refitted in 1991 by a combination of European Auto Interiors and Terry Larson at a total cost of $26,729. The MKIV, which won Jaguar Club concours awards in North America every year from 1991 to 1997, is being sold complete with: two comprehensive albums of the restoration work, plus all invoices; full original tool kit; Jaguar radiator mascot; original, fully-operating valve radio; hood cover; and details of the concours victories. A delightful and rare car that appears ready to continue its winning ways.
